Sunland Orchards
Nick's family's history is deeply rooted in the Murray Valley. His father came to the area in 1956 from Italy and went straight to farming with his father who had come 10 years prior. They started with one property, and through the years the farm and family continued to grow. Today, Nick is the third generation to take on the farm, a job that came naturally after a childhood spent outside. He farms 600 hectares of nectarines, peaches, plums, apricots, persimmons, cherries, mandarins, lemons & pears. Nick’s curiosity and passion for farming takes him all over the world to discover the newest varieties…the most recent being a new range of peach nectarines that are flat (like a donut!)

An outdated management system hindered spray schedule creation, causing disorganization among growers, agronomists, and contractors.

In order to keep maximizing profit, but make the process as quick and simple as possible, they know they have to have the right equipment and partners in place.
